Answer 3

It depends on what you call yams. I am assuming that you are speaking about sweet potatoes from your reference to candied. Yams are a different veggie.

You can make a sweet potatoe pie which is delish, or one of my favorites a "sweet soup".

Roast 3 sweet potatoes and one butter nut squash that you have halved, brushed with olive oil and sprinkled with salt and pepper. In a soup pot sautee 1 small onion in a 1 tbsp. of both olive oil and butter until its transluscent. When the sweet potatoe and squash are done add it to the onions. Add 1 quart of chicken stock. If it's not enough to make it a soup consistency add a little more. It should be the consistency of heavy cream. If you don't have one of those hand blenders, use your blender in stages. Add salt, pepper, thyme and 1 bay leaf and nutmeg as your taste likes it. Let this simmer for about 25 - 30 minues. Turn off the heat. After this time remove the bay and sprig of thyme. Then add 1 quart of light cream. Season again and YUM! If you want to freeze this just dont add the cream. You can add the cream when you reheat.

Answer 5

unless you live in south america, you've never actually eaten a yam...they don't ship well so the U.S. doesn't have any...in the U.S. we developed a strain of sweet potatoes (which are a completely different vegetable) called a sweet potato yam. it is just a little sweeter and the skin is a little thinner and therefore more tender...it is still a sweet potato though i am afraid... so if you want to serve yams 20 different ways eat in south america...



incidentally, just for anyone who would be curious...the same can be said for cantaloupes...they are only grown in Europe...what we think of as cantaloupes here in america is actually a small hybrid of a muskmelon...some stores sell the "cantaloupe" and muskmelon because they are so different in size...people think they are different melons but they are just different varieties of the same melon...
